We serve breakfast daily from 6:30 am to 11:00 am. Our breakfast items consist of Omelettes, Eggs Bennies, 2 egg breakfast, Pancakes, French Toast, etc. We do have a few "Mexican" breakfast items and may add another option or two for Summer, but they are easy to cook (1 is an omelette and 1 is a benny, the 3rd being Huevos Rancheros).
Our lunch/dinner is served from 11:00 am to close. (currently 8:00 pm and 9:00 pm depending on the evening - hours will extend to at least 10:00 pm likely by mid-May if not sooner). While we have a more Mexican-leaning lunch and dinner menu, we also have a lot of non-Mexican dishes and will be adding a few items to both the Mexican and non-Mexican options for the Summer.
We are looking for people with positive attitudes, who work well with a team or on their own when necessary. Our aim is to continue to build something fun and different in the community! Joe and I owned Taziker's back in 2016 to 2018 before moving back East to be closer to family, and opened Taziker's Express (during Covid, eek!) before Joe ended up being off work due to medical reasons for the past 4 years. When the opportunity came up, we felt like it was the time to do what we had REALLY been wanting to do for many years now and open a Mexican restaurant here! If this sounds like an opportunity you would like to check out, bring in your resume or send a message on Facebook and we can set up a time for an interview. :)
Qualifications & Experience
Serving experience is required as we are going into the busy Summer season and while training is absolutely available, we do need people who have previous experience. At least 3 years is preferred, but we are open to less if you can bring reliability, a great personality and willingness to learn! Bartending experience is also preferred, but we are able to train in that area more easily if you already have serving experience.
Once the patio opens up, we will likely need a 2nd server on no later than 8:00 am, possibly earlier. Mid serving and bartending shifts will start at 10:00 am and closing shifts for both positions would start around 4:00 or 5:00 pm.
Monday-Saturday liquor service begins at 10:00 am; Sundays at 11:00 am.
We are looking into adding an event license to our insurance as needed so that we can start to have more theme nights, games nights, possibly karaoke (we do have a machine!), murder mystery nights, etc! We will be offering catering and private parties which will also open up more hours and/or extra servers needing to be on when the front (old "family room") is in use for a party, meeting or event.
